Look hard enough and you might get lucky. I certainly did when I bought 4 OEM 17x8.5 from one of the board members here last month. With all Spec boxsters racers moving towards square setup despite the regulations, rears are getting hard to come by.
Replicas are usually 4-5lbs heavier to that will void your desire to reduce unsprung mass.

Hi 986ForyEight, pleasure meeting you, and hope they work out for a great season!

I made his OEM set from my two Boxsters, they are for sale, but rarely! Our deal also worked out well since we were local.

Good luck with your search Joe!
